5.0 out of 5 stars What a bargain!!!, April 3, 2007

By	Jen the RN (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews

I have had a Boss Superlite since August of 2005 and love its light weight, power, and convenience. I have a long-haired dog (Pekingese) who sheds quite a bit and this little vac seems to pick up every single hair! It has very powerful suction and the dust cup is washable if you dont want to purchase replacements. My favorite feature is the small transparent window between the brushroll and the tank which can be opened to remove clogs. I admit it can be a little bit messy when emptying the canister, but I have owned several bagless uprights in the past with similar experiences. I plan to have this vacuum for a very long time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Used to love it, but not so much now! Wish Amazon would allow me to change star rating; I'd give it 3 stars now., April 16, 2007

April 17, 2007: I think any negative reviews may be from people who are trying to use this vacuum as a whole house vacuum and it's not made for that. We bought this vacuum to replace the Eureka Boss 402A (yellow vacuum) Eureka Boss Super Light Upright Stick Vacuum - 402A. We needed a vacuum for the kitchen floor and rugs. We have three dogs and one cat. I have tried practically every kitchen vacuum on the market and so far the Eureka 442A is the best! It is a wonderful improvement over the Eureka Boss 402A (yellow vacuum). It is quieter, it's smoother to handle, the brush roll is wider, it does a good job cleaning. This one even vacuums up the dry leaves that make it into our attached garage. I wiped our vacuum down with fabric softener to prevent static build-up which could make dog hair stick to the vacuum. You could probably use a dryer sheet to wipe it down, too.

Update as of June 6, 2007: After using this product for a couple of months now, I have encountered a couple of issues. 1. The power cord cover split exposing the internal wiring. (I did not let anyone else use this vacuum or change the way I vacuum.) 2. The dust cup filter is very difficult to clean compared to the old Eureka Boss 402A (yellow vacuum). And after hand-washing it takes days for the filter to dry. I bought an extra dust cup filter because I couldn't wait days for the original to dry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick picker upper, February 12, 2007

By	Ernestine U. Gay (New Hampshire) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I just love my little Eureka bagless vacuum- it's lightweight,picks up cat hair and crumbs easily. No need to drag out the big heavy one. The price is easy, compared to the big ones, many of which don't do as good a job!! Can easily be taken upstairs. I heartily reccomend it.
